Comment(by mstone):

 Second attempt, with better formatting.

 {{{
 C12 (containing ' and ") has no et mappings; it only has us mappings.
 C13 (containing \ and |) did not have a correct altgr_shift mapping.
 B4 (containing c) is not mapped in et
 B11 (containing / and ?) is correctly not mapped in et
 E1 (containing ` and ~) requires two key presses in et and one in us.
 D9 (containing i) + alt_gr, in the us layout, produces a character
     which breaks backspacing in the terminal. Maybe a terminal bug?
 }}}
